Harrell was diagnosed with a foot injury in late August 2018. She wore a protective boot for more than a month and was off the ice completely for two to three weeks. [4] She stated, "I had a bad injury on my foot, and I had two stress reactions, and they were almost fractured". [4]

In October, Harrell placed seventh at her JGP assignment in Yerevan, Armenia. In January, at the 2019 U.S. Championships, she won the senior pewter medal (behind Alysa Liu, Bradie Tennell and Mariah Bell).

Harrell had to withdraw from the 2019 JGP Italy due to a stress fracture in her foot that was repeatedly misdiagnosed.
